Open zolanaj opened 5 months ago
@Bill-Becker Daniel had mentioned the other day that you two were working on a project in which it would be beneficial to have exports without compensation, to account for the emissions offset. Should we discuss this behavior as a group?
@adfarth @zolanaj we were using a previous version of REopt.jl, before the Big M implementation, and we WERE seeing curtailment instead of zero-value export. We did not do anything to change this. Our workaround was just to assign a smaller value to the wholesale/export rate. So it seems like maybe the Big M updates now allow export at zero value instead of curtailment?
In some cases, results exhibit grid exports at zero revenue instead of curtailment when the latter is the appropriate results.
The proposed fix is to fix dvProductionToGrid=0 in any period-tier pairing in which the 'cost' (a negative number to indicate a benefit) is equal to zero.
